Wimbledon 2016: Andy Murray to play fellow Briton Liam Broady

World number two Andy Murray will face fellow Briton Liam Broady in the first round of Wimbledon.

Compatriot James Ward, who received a wildcard for the tournament, will play defending champion and top seed Novak Djokovic in the first round.

Murray is in the more favourable half of the draw and the former champion would only face Djokovic or third seed Roger Feder in the final.

Djokovic and Federer are scheduled to meet in the semi-finals.

The highest seeds in Murray's half are Stan Wawrinka, Kei Nishikori and Richard Gasquet, a semi-finalist last year.
